JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Tropical storm “Dexter” is over the open N. Atlantic with no impact to land areas & will soon become a strong ocean storm.
What to watch
- Low pressure is forecast to develop east & northeast of Jacksonville by Friday then move north/northwest toward the Carolina’s over the weekend then turn more northeast away from the coast. It doesn’t appear this will be a strong system but will produce rip currents at the beaches & pockets of heavy rain – especially for the Carolina’s to Virginia.
- A tropical wave over the far East Atlantic has long term potential while moving some semblance of west.
- Another wave will emerge off the coast of Africa & has long term potential. A long way out but something to carefully track over the next 10-14 days.
